I have been doing some thinking and that is always dangerous to do for me when it comes to sports. I have been bouncing around ideas in my head about who should be the NL Cy Young winner.
My initial thoughts were Tim Lincecum or Matt Cain. Out of those two I would give the nod to Lincecum. Lately Lincecum has pitched well but has not put up many wins.
My next choice was Adam Wainwright. The Cards hurler leads the league in wins with 16. He is a lock when he pitches and is very impressive. Then there are guys like Jason Marquis of the Rockies and Johnathan Broxton of the Dodgers who have been key pitchers on their squads.
Here is my choice: Chris Carpenter. Carpenter is now 15-3 on the season, keep in mind he missed a good portion of the season. His ERA is a baseball best 2.28. Now that is dominant. He could finish the season 20-3, it is possible.
Felix Hernandez pitched another gem last night for the Mariners. The calm and collected Mariners hurler picked up his 14th win of the season as he pitched a shutout against the mighty Angels. No one shuts them out. This win # and #53 of his career.
Finally CC wins again, he picked up win #16 of the season as the Yanks once again provided great run support. That is win #133 of his career. He is taking a great run for 20 wins.
